"oriented"

Photoshop CS6 offers a new engine that harnesses images and patterns to create fills, offering different arrangements to give some great effects particularly suited to graphic design or collage oriented projects.

Brenda Huettner shares exciting developments in how graphics, especially video, are replacing traditional text-oriented training steps. Huettner observes that many "static" screen grabs are being replaced by intelligent software simulations, like the ones that she creates with Adobe Captivate. The lines between video production and traditional "tech doc" continue to blur.

The Magic Wand selection tool gives Illustrator users some very interesting ways of making object-oriented selections. Learn the power of the Magic Wand tool and its ability to make selections by object color, pattern, and even stroke weight.

Adobe Certified Trainer Barb Binder takes you through the simple steps of creating and using landscape pages mixed in a portrait oriented document. Unlike Microsoft Word, FrameMaker uses master pages, not section breaks. This eliminates a host of problems experienced by Word users when section breaks are adjacent to complex numbered headings or lists. You can either allow pagination to go through the FrameMaker landscape page, or around the landscape page.

Learn how to overcome the daunting task of making a comp work on the web. This session will cover how to take common design elements and make them show up correctly in HTML, JavaScript, and CSS. Join Terry Ryan, Adobe evangelist, to learn how to: • Analyze and break up comps into manageable pieces • Take your designs live in the browser • Make sure your designs work across different desktop and mobile browsers • Have your pages degrade gracefully if a design choice doesn't make sense on the small or large screen

H.B. Beal Secondary School has been the major technical secondary school in London, Ontario, Canada since the year 1912. In that time, Beal has established itself as being at the forefront of practical, hands-on education. The school has always welcomed those eager to learn, even those whom other schools discarded. For over 50 years, Beal has also been the leader in Broadcasting Education across Southwestern Ontario. However, recently, due to limited funding and an economy that is getting poorer and poorer, Beal’s broadcasting program, “BTV”, is falling behind. In order to prevent this, BTV is teaming up with local news station, Rogers TV, to create a show for youth, about youth, and produced by youth. This is quite exciting for the students enrolled in the program, but with funds being at their current level, the show seems due to fail. Both those at Beal and those at Rogers TV believe that this youth-oriented television show is vital to improving conditions in a city with a 9.1% unemployed rate (2% more than the Canadian average). At Beal, approximately 25% of the student population is high-risk, and almost 5% of the students live on their own (the highest across the school board). With tv segments that will talk about youth issues such as drug abuse, food preparation, and mental health issues, we believe that we can be a great aid to these students as well as youth all across the viewership.

See exciting new developments in academic publishing on mobile devices. This session will showcase periodical and research-oriented projects initiated at Case Western Reserve University and Indiana University that use Adobe Digital Publishing Suite for publishing scholarly information to the next generation of tablet devices. Learn about the unique requirements and challenges of publishing such documents and how to make the best use of multimedia and interactive design. Plus, explore how to employ the analytic features supported by Digital Publishing Suite for conveying complex information.

Learn new aspect-oriented programming (AOP) techniques for Flex development. This session begins with an overview of AOP fundamentals to demystify the terminology and advances to discussions on why ActionScript developers may want to utilize these new techniques. Discover the new AOP support in the wildly popular Swiz framework and how it aims to greatly reduce developer barriers by simplifying AOP. Then look at some real examples to understand how AOP works in practice.

Chris Meyer shows how a visually oriented person can take advantage of the Favorites and Presets in Audition to improve their After Effects soundtracks, from utilities such as Repair DC Offset to creative possibilities such as lo-fi simulations.

Doug continues to cover best practices for accessing data in object-oriented programming. In this video, he uses the "get" command to make his custom class' private method act like a regular public variable.

Doug shows the ActionScript coding needed to bring the dice-rolling application from the last few videos alive. He focuses on the importance of communication among multiple classes in object-oriented programming.

Building on the skills covered in his continuing lesson on object-oriented programming in Flash Professional, Doug highlights how to create mouse events for classes that automatically are part of each instance.

In this video, Doug opens up a new topic for developers working in Flash Professional CS5. He defines what object-oriented programming means, and explains the role that classes play in an object’s behavior.

Discover visual and conceptual models that can help you understand programming generally and ActionScript specifically. Everything shown will be supplemented with related code samples. You'll walk away with clear (and, possibly, new and unique) ways to think about properties, methods, data types, classes, and object oriented programming. Additional topics may include variables, loops, arrays, and value objects. All are welcome, but ActionScript experience is recommended.

In this session, learn how to help with the documentation of the framework, be it reference API documentation or more tutorial-oriented material, either by fixing issues with existing docs, updating docs to reflect the latest version, and more!
